ashramof1: Shiva as Natarajadances the universe into existence.This universe is His divine Dance.Everything bubbles forth,in and out of existencelike bursts of particles in a large hadron collider.It is no coincidence that a giant bronze of Natarajagreets visitors at CERNthe worlds most famous particle accelerator: Shiva as Nataraja embodies the Divine Creative Impulse. You, me, this flower This hummingbird, that butterfly.All his dance. Why a dancer?Because dance is the only art form wherethe form and the performer cannot be separated:No dancer, no dance. And his mighty drum thundersthe colours and polyrhythms of creation.Hands whirlingfrozen now in grace and balance.His dance is circumferenced by Mahakala,the wheel of time, ablaze with circular movement.One foot raised in sudden benevolence,the other treads lightlyon the twisted dwarf formof the ego, the small self. And all around us His Dance:In your sleep,In your dreams,In your waking hours,In your every heartbeat,And in every breath: Shiva dances.Self absorbed.And in bliss.
